His originality became more evident in his 'cluster blocks' in <a href="/wiki/Bethnal_Green" title="Bethnal Green">Bethnal Green</a>.

The cluster blocks grouped flats around a central tower, and tenants were intended to be able to pick out their own flats in the structure. The earlier blocks at Usk Street of 1954 were medium-sized, while the later block <a href="/wiki/Keeling_House" title="Keeling House">Keeling House</a> is high-rise.
